Mother of the Year Poem:You’re always there day and night,Even when you’re not in sight.You’re my shoulder and my rock,Whenever I need you around the clock.You are my role model and leader,My biggest and loudest cheerleader.I know I can never say this enough,I love you so so much.

May is generally associated with graduations. Whether graduating from junior high, high school, college or receiving an advanced degree or professional certification; it’s a time for celebration and gathering family and friends.

Over the years, Zehnder’s has provided complete tuition assistance for hundreds of our employees. Many have completed advanced professional certifications, bachelor’s degrees and three of our employees have completed their MBA’s; entirely funded by our company. All of our college level degrees are earned through our great partnership with Northwood University. In the Fall of 2018, our Front Desk Supervisor Bill Anthony received his Bachelor’s degree and this spring, Front Desk and Call Center Manager Alice Fissette and Dining Room Supervisor James Dwenger are receiving their Bachelor’s degrees and Lauren Zehnder, Splash Village Assistant GM is receiving an MBA. Please congratulate these individuals on the successful completion of their studies.

If you are interested in a career in the Hospitality Industry, please come in and talk with one of our Human Resource professionals. We would love to be part of your successful future.

If you have a graduate in your circle of friends or family consider Zehnder’s as an option for a memorable celebration or use our world famous bakery to provide the graduate with a personalized cake.

Congratulations to all of you!

Hospitably Yours,

Al Zehnder

Phase one of the project is near completion with the removal of (32) 1,800 pound roof panels. The next step (phase 2) over the next few weeks will be the installation of the 60 ft. glass sections. Just like our Atrium park retractable roof, the new Splash Park retractable roof will offer the same WOW factor allowing in more sunlight and fresh air. Remember it’s always 82 degrees and sunny at Zehnder’s Splash Village so bring plenty of sunscreen and sunglasses, we highly recommend it!

We anticipate only minor disruptions in business and will keep everyone updated on the progress. Be sure to follow us on social media and subscribe to our monthly e-newsletter below for updates.

Starting May 13th, the Splash Park will be open during regular business hours. Please see the Waterpark Schedule here for hours.﻿
